Now Vinnie's back...

[Bellers_a_hero]

...is Mancini going to replace Kolo or Zab?

Honestly I think he'll take out Zab and put Richards at RB. But I think he should slot Vinnie K in where Kolo has been playing. That is a solid back 4 (Clichy - Vinnie - Richards - Zab) and the best we have other than the obvious choice of Lescott.

Lets just see though on Saturday...

I think Richards offers us so much at right back in an attacking sense that we benefit far more moving him over and dropping Zaba than we do droppinh Kolo and keeping Zaba in the side.

Love Zabs but Micah is a much bigger threat at RB than he is at CB.

Lescott stepped up training today according to Doug's training report (mcnet)

But sounds like it might be too soon for Sunderland, but could be available for Arsenal.

I'd play Richards at right back too. And maybe AJ as their left back maybe missing. AJ and Richards are formidable when they attack together.

We're not Barca, its not like we're putting Adriano at Left Back, plus Johnson's attacking threat is plummeting, we can't underestimate Sunderland tomorrow, as much as I'd love to see us absolutely destroy them.

I really like Zab as a player but as mentioned, Richards is far more a threat on his day. I think his decision making in the attacking half is that bit better than Zab's.

AJ isn`t formidable at attacking anything he`s been awful for ages.

Anyway I reckon he will drop Zab think Clichy-Vinny-Kolo-Richards will start.

Would not mind seeing Kolarov though,

I think Zab is a better attacking full back playing left back,it gives him the opportunity to shoot more,he gets in the box more than Clichy too.

Definitely Richards at full back for tomorrow, especially with Aguero out.

 

[stavros]

in the long run i can see micah partnering vinnie.

i can see us buying a flying attacking right back too.

clichy kompany richards ??
